Physiotherapy for Musculoskeletal Conditions
Our Approach to Musculoskeletal Physiotherapy
Physiotherapy for Musculoskeletal Conditions in Lagos
At Tecnifisio, we specialise in Musculoskeletal Physiotherapy and treat a variety of orthopaedic, trauma and rheumatological conditions and injuries, and work on injury prevention in people of all ages, from athletes to adults, children and the elderly. The conditions we treat include muscle-tendon injuries, postural changes, spinal pain, traumatic/degenerative injuries, as well as pre- and post-surgery cases, rheumatoid arthritis, fibromyalgia and ankylosing spondylitis.
We highlight our therapeutic approach in three main methods and techniques:
POLD Method:
The POLD Method, innovative in the field of Manual Therapy, was developed by Dr Juan Vicente López Diaz in Spain. This method is based on applying oscillatory passive mobilisation at a sustained resonance frequency over the spine, soft tissues and joints. The method aims to balance muscle tension, return joints to the correct position and movement and restore the circulation of body fluids. It is particularly effective in spinal conditions, degenerative joint conditions, muscle injuries, tendinopathies, rheumatic conditions and other conditions involving pain and changes in joint physiology and mobility.
Body and Awareness Method:
The Body and Awareness Method, created by George Courchinoux, is based on four principles: balance and harmonisation, self-knowledge, postural adjustment and energy reorganisation. It promotes physical and mental balance, teaching techniques such as self-massage and drainage, fostering self-knowledge, improving posture and helping with energy reorganisation. This method works to promote a better postural attitude and overall balance.
Osteopathic Techniques:
Osteopathy, created in 1892 by Andrew Taylor Still, is a manual diagnostic and therapeutic approach that focuses on dysfunctions of joint and tissue mobility in order to prevent, treat and avoid the development of pathologies. Osteopathy is based on four main foundations, including the principle that structure governs function, the unity of the body, self-healing and the rule of the artery. This approach uses manual relaxation, functional and structural techniques to promote recovery and pain relief, restoring the body’s structural and functional balance.
Our team at Tecnifisio works with dedication and professionalism to provide effective, personalised treatments to each patient, aiming at their recovery and improved quality of life. If you are looking for solutions to musculoskeletal conditions, we are here to help and guide you on the path to a healthier, pain-free life.
